Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer displays several genetic mutations including epidermal growth factor receptor. This study's objective was to determine if the EGFR exon19 rs121913438 and exon21 rs121434568 variations play a role in NSCLC susceptibility.
Case-control research was done at the Mansoura university oncology center including 124 NSCLC patients, and 124 healthy volunteers. blood was used to obtain genomic DNA. ARMS-PCR was used to genotype single-nucleotide polymorphisms.
Molecular study for EGFR exon 19 del. showed NSCLC cases were significantly associated with a higher proportion of heterozygous WD, WD + DD dominant genotypes, and mutant D allele, (p < 0.05 for each), with a risk to develop NSCLC. also, NSCLC cases were significantly associated with a higher proportion of heterozygous TG, TG + GG dominant genotype, G mutant allele, (p < 0.05 for each), with a risk to develop LC (OR > 1 for each). regarding the two EGFR mutations, TTF1 staining was significantly associated with WD + DD genotypes for EGFR exon 19 del But not EGFR exon 21. No substantial differences were found among all studied cases with CK7 or napsin A Tumor cytochemistry.
The WD heterozygous genotype and D allele in exon 19 del. mutation as well as the TG heterozygous and G allele in exon 21 substitution mutation in EGFR gene are strongly associated with the development of advanced-NSCLC in the Egyptians.
非小细胞肺癌存在多种基因突变,包括表皮生长因子受体。本研究的目的是确定表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)外显子19的rs121913438和外显子21的rs121434568变异是否在非小细胞肺癌易感性中起作用。
在曼苏拉大学肿瘤中心进行病例对照研究,包括124例非小细胞肺癌患者和124名健康志愿者。采集血液以获取基因组DNA。采用扩增阻滞突变系统聚合酶链反应(ARMS-PCR)对单核苷酸多态性进行基因分型。
对EGFR外显子19缺失的分子研究表明,非小细胞肺癌病例与杂合子WD、WD + DD显性基因型以及突变型D等位基因的比例较高显著相关(每项p < 0.05),存在患非小细胞肺癌的风险。此外,非小细胞肺癌病例与杂合子TG、TG + GG显性基因型、G突变等位基因的比例较高显著相关(每项p < 0.05),存在患肺癌的风险(每项比值比>1)。关于两种EGFR突变,甲状腺转录因子1(TTF1)染色与EGFR外显子19缺失的WD + DD基因型显著相关,但与EGFR外显子21无关。在所有研究病例中,细胞角蛋白7(CK7)或 napsin A肿瘤细胞化学未发现实质性差异。
EGFR基因外显子19缺失突变中的WD杂合基因型和D等位基因以及外显子21替代突变中的TG杂合子和G等位基因与埃及人晚期非小细胞肺癌的发生密切相关。
